Puffs

in March 2012 Moms

So LO is still eating 2 meals per day: 2 oz fruit am and 2 oz veggies night, we will introduce a 3rd soon and puree meat at 9 mo per ped.

We havent tried puffs yet, but see a lot of posts on this. Is there nutritional value in these, if not, what is the purpose of feeding-to get used to grabbing I assume?

 

Thanks!

    Pretty much to get the hang of finger foods. I only give him about 5 max in one sitting.

    I just started giving them to LO so he can practice his grabbing skills. He still won't eat food pieces because he cannot get past the texture. In the meantime, I put two or three on his tray and he spends a long time chasing them and moving them around in his hands. Occasionally, he will put them in his mouth and then spit it out.

    I am pretty entertained, actually.

    This. I do give her more than 5 though, probably about 10. I give her those little rice rusk cups too. She gets 1 after dinner every night and she gets puffs after lunch. Nothing after breakfast.

    Practicing self-feeding is pretty important, but there is no huge rush.  LO will put away as many as I let her.  She's a fiend!  Peas are also a good finger food, but sometimes the soft casing doesn't get swallowed.

    Where do you get these cups and any special type of puffs?
